 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [2.7.2] - 2026-11-10
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Restore native, canonical, compatibility and prefixed select indicators after semantic field background shorthands.
+- Preserve the reserved indicator gutter when compact preset density rules change control padding.
+- Keep Retro Glass indicators above its recessed material and retain Neo Noir's browser-owned arrow without duplicate custom paint.
+- Retain existing keyboard, disabled, multiple-select and RTL behavior.
+
+### Release tooling
+
+- Add a manual 2.7.2-only artifact publisher requiring a verified source commit, a merged exact-head independent review, reproduced generated assets and public tarball checksum readback. It uses the existing npm package-owner credential and runs no CI or test suite.
+
+## [2.7.1] - 2026-10-29
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Preserved readable hover and pressed labels across prefixed controls, semantic aliases, anchor actions, native controls, navigation, and tables.
+- Prevented inline-link colors and generated alias exclusions from overriding component foreground pairs, including mixed React class models.
+- Kept decorative gloss outside action label areas and paired selected fills with their proper foregrounds.
+- Prevented neutral defaults from replacing outlined CTA hover fills and corrected Clay icon-button surface pairing.
+- Preserved primary paint on Y2K cut CTAs and kept complete trust-seal labels inside their frame.
+- Corrected Bento success and warning badge ink on translucent surfaces.

 It is separate from, but complementary to, **Interactive Surface CSS** and **Layout Style CSS**. Use **UI Style Kit CSS** for visual identity, color themes, UI presets, layout mood, and native HTML styling. Use **Interactive Surface CSS** for interaction-state animation systems and surface behavior. Use **Layout Style CSS** for responsive layout wrappers, grid systems, macro-structure positioning, and container scaffolding.
 
-## Current release candidate
+## Current version
 
-Version `v2.7.0` is the current release candidate. It adds shared card and link presentation controls, repairs component spacing and message feedback, and preserves selected button variants when React combines semantic attributes with preset classes. The demo keeps its controls visible while scrolling and preserves entered values across theme changes. New markup should use `.usk-*`; generated `.ui-*` aliases remain available for existing consumers.
+Version `v2.7.2` is the current UI version. It restores native and semantic dropdown indicators and their reserved text gutter, preserving preset material paint and browser-native arrow ownership. The 2.7.1 interaction-contrast corrections remain intact. New markup should use `.usk-*`; generated `.ui-*` aliases remain available for existing consumers.
 
 The exhaustive browser suite defines 20 presets × 25 themes × 3 modes × 3 engines (4,500 combinations). Run the final release gate on the frozen candidate before treating that full matrix as current verification.
 
-The `v2.4.0` baseline introduced complete native-control identities, native light/dark/contrast palettes when `data-theme` is omitted, a palette-aware color workbench, a unified demo with style-specific components, and exactly pinned parser-based minification. See the [2.7.0 release notes](docs/RELEASE-2.7.0.md) for the current scope and verification boundaries.
